Fall 2023 - Really funny and nice guy, the most helpful teacher on campus and 50% of the grade are homework and attendance. Gives review sessions before tests which are really helpful through the test are not easy to say. Weekly graded homework which may take some time through, however it is easy to get 100% on that and it is like half of your grade. Definity 5/5 class and would gladly take again.

Winter 2024 - Deifel is a somewhat old-schooled style professor, in that he will lecture on the board with chalk, and supplements his own lectures with slides that previous professors have used for the class. The class is always interesting, but suffers a little bit from issues within the department(i.e. equipment issues, etc.) that tends to be out of his control. He's one of the rare professors who have extended office hours during the week, when you can go in and talk to him about both class content, and a variety of other things in and out of chemistry. His education experience makes him really personable as a professor, so definitely find him during office hours!
